People believe that the freedom of speech τους δίνει το δικαίωμα να δημοσιεύουν ό, τι θέλουν στο Facebook ή γενικότερα στο διαδίκτυο, αλλά υπάρχουν και κάποιοι που ανακαλύπτουν με το πιο σκληρό τρόπο ότι αυτό δεν είναι απόλυτα σωστό.
Express released an article for a man who was jailed because he dared to criticize his employer on Facebook online. Ignoring the consequences he might have regarding his freedom, he published a simple view on Facebook, and eventually was taken to prison.
American citizen Ryan Pate, who was working as mechanical helicopter operator for a Middle Eastern company, complained on his Facebook page that while he was on leave and had gone to Florida to visit his family, he was not allowed by his employer to extend his leave a few more days . Ryan Pate tried to convince his employer over the phone that his extended leave was absolutely necessary because of his back injury, but he was refused extra days.
Completely annoyed by his employer's response, Pate decided to share his experience and frustration online at Facebook. His publication contains the word "back", that is, that he was treated cowardly.
However, the employer somehow learned about his publication and demanded to capture Pate as soon as he stepped his foot in the Arab Emirates. As it turned out.
What we do not know is that there is a law in the Emirates that clearly states that no employee is allowed to reduce or abuse his employer, let alone public.
However, although such a law seems to be totally absurd in the eyes of an American citizen, Ryan Pate spent 10 days in prison, then went out with a bail and is now waiting for his trial facing a possible conviction that can reach up to 5 years in jail and a fine of $ 50.000.
Although he himself has expressed his regret and apologized to his employer, he now has no other choice from waiting for his sentence. At his trial he is expected to argue that the disputed statement was made from foreign soil and not from the Emirates, when he should be punished under the laws of the country where the statement was made.
This is why you should be careful about what you post online. Of course, we all know that the Emirates have a different attitude towards foreign nationals living and working in their country. But let's not forget that and recently we had an awakening of the Greek judiciary due to the unacceptable publications against Vangelis Giakoumakis.
As well as the fact that our ip internet is a transaction recognition identity.
The internet has become like the real world with rights and obligations…. sigh…. *
